The Fancy Side

Remember how I have a ridiculous amount of blue textured polishes? I may or may not have bought another one. Okay, I'm guilty, I did. But in my defense, at the time, I thought it was just a pretty blue polish. ;-)

Today I have Sephora X's Galaxy. This is from their Celestial's collection. It is a navy blue polish with silver glitters in it. It's one of those polishes were in the right light it looks black versus blue.




Application was great, here you see 2 easy coats. I do like the sparkle in this polish. Sephora X's new line of polishes has yet to let me down. I also bought the 22 and I'm working on getting them all swatched up to show you. Hopefully I'll be able to knock the rest out this weekend and show you by next week.

Have you tried any Sephora X's yet? What do you think?

Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

Bang is a micro matte glitter bomb packed with neon orange and neon yellow glitters. I've done three layers of Bang on all fingers except my ring finger. On the ring finger, I've layered one coat over Sally Hansen's Ivory Skull.






This is Zapped. Zapped is a micro matte glitter bomb packed with neon green and neon teal glitters. I've done three layers of Zapped on all fingers except my ring finger. On the ring finger, I've layered one coat over Sally Hansen's Ivory Skull.




Finally we have Kaboom. Kaboom is a micro matte glitter bomb packed with neon teal and neon green glitters. I've done three layers of Kaboom on all fingers except my ring finger. On the ring finger, I've layered one coat over Sally Hansen's Ivory Skull.




Four out of these six polishes have a match so to speak. They are the same color combos they just switch which color is dominant. I've done a comparison here. Bang and Jolt both have the neon orange and neon yellow glittlers, while Zapped and Kaboom both have the teal and neon green. Personally I feel like Exploded (neon pink) looks so similar to Bang, I would have liked to see them do a more neon blue with the magenta like Shocked and continue that theme.

Formula wise, I was a little terrified. I first swatched Jolt, and it was terribly thick and gritty. However, I think this was a fluke as all the others applied beautifully, layered well, and dried fairly smooth. I'm going to apply thinner to Jolt and I have a feeling it will right all the problems I experienced. These polishes build up to opaqueness by three layers so are easy to wear on their own or they layer well on top of polish undies. I've also discovered that Seche Vite doesn't go well with these polishes. I think its because there is no color in the base pigment, so it has nothing to grip to. If you use a normal (not fast dry top coat) they last much longer.

Personally my picks from this collection are Shocked and Kaboom. If you want an orangey one, go with Exploded.

Which color is your favorite?

This collection consists of 6 pastel shades, 4 cremes and 2 cremes with golden shimmer in them.

It's day 16 of the Untried Polish Challenge and that means I only have 1 post left after this one. The end is in sight people, I've almost made it. 

Today I chose a simple swatch of a creme polish that I have always picked up, looked at, and then put back down. But not this time, this time I've used it. 



Enjoy & until tomorrow, Amy Lee
